It looks like it is out of print, I'm hoping that I still have it on a box somewhere, because it's selling online for stupid prices.

Oh shit, I googled for what I could remember and I found it:

A very scary jack-o'-lantern

Reading this little pumpkin shaped glow in the dark book about a witch. My whimsy levels went through the roof.

I wish I could remember what the book was called

American exceptionalism and identity politics have become so ingrained in the culture that it is too painful for people to identify as lower class and needing assistance. Needing help has become considered a moral failing of the individual instead of a failing of the society, and that feeds back into itself to prevent people from changing the culture.

I don't, but I should.
I don't because my fear of donating to a fraudulent/ineffective organization aligns with my laziness regarding figuring out the best causes and procrastinating in making a budget.

Fear and executive dysfunction, together forming the perfect storm of neurodivergent inaction.

Has a pocket full of horses, fucks the shit out of bears
Threw a knife into heaven, can kill with a stare

I second someone else suggestion: the murderbot diaries. It's great.
Most of the books people here are recommending are fairly lengthy, but you can get through the first murderbot book in a dedicated evening.

Each of the novels is more detached than the last - it's great but probably not for someone just starting their journey into fiction
